17-The Test of the Strongest Part 4

Before the Charge of the two strongest prisoners, The Other prisoners had already armed themselves from the weapons they could find. Most of them were under the leadership of Douglas. Making ranks and creating strategies like Phalanx formation. It would defend them from the monsters and would also give them the chance to attack.

Of course, It wasn't that easy to do. They needed practice and the current Phalanx formation had many weaknesses. It took them a while to finish the basic information, spears, and shields. Some of them abandoned their weapons since spears and shields were useful to them. It was the cooperation of the prisoners that made the possibility of recreating the Phalanx formation.

Leo and Alex were charging at the Huge Monster at a fast speed, Rushing towards the Huge Monster without fear. Leo was the first one that arrives near the Huge Monster. Hunting Fairly Large Monsters during the End, Leo had only one technique that he always use when fighting a Huge Monster. The Success rate of this Technique was good and it was also one of the lowest mortality rate Techniques than other techniques during the End.

It was to Defang the Snake Technique, Huge Monsters were very dangerous. Some of them have trump cards, Before killing the monster. Defanging it would be a good thing, Never lower the guard, And Making Sure the moment Leo kill the monster it would take only one hit. It was fairly hard for many reasons, It also takes a lot of time than other techniques.

But it was better than using a technique with a high mortality rate, Leo had the time he wanted. There was no reason to be greedy and making it blind his focus on the monster. This was how Leo does things, It was to protect himself while killing his enemy. He would charge for no reason and this was one of the reasons he was the last survivor of the Old World.

*ROAR!!!!*

A Loud Roar was heard from the Huge Monster, Leo and Alex didn't bother the roar and continue rushing. Leo, who was the nearest began his attack. He Charges through the monster and began to attack the Leg that was cut by Alex. It was good to focus on the area that was already cut or damage, One leg of the Huge Monster could probably lower its overall strength.

The Dagger had a whistling sound for some reason, It was heading towards the Huge Monster's leg at a fast speed. Connecting to the Skin, Leo manages to penetrate the Monster Flesh. But it wasn't still enough, Leo began to retreat and what follow him was another person. It was Alex.

Alex slowly swings her Katana towards the Cut part of Leo, It was an effective weapon than the dagger. The Katana connected through the wound, It made the wound much deeper than before. The Bones of the Monster was felt by the Katana but it was fairly harder than normal. Another attack would be needed.

Alex retreated and began running towards the other leg, Leo on the other hand was already near the Wound that made the bone of the monster reveal itself. Slashing through the Monster's Bones with his two daggers at the same time. It was to inflict much critical damage as possible and when the Daggers connected. The Bones broke itself and the Daggers went through the Legs of the Monsters.

They finally manage to take out one leg of the Huge Monster. A Huge Hand appeared at the side of Leo but this was already expected. He retreated while Alex was still finding the chance to attack the last leg. Some might ask why some of them didn't try to attack the Huge Hands of the Monster.

When a monster represents something humanoid or a monster with hands. The most idiotic thing someone could do is attack the hands. Especially a monster with two hands, There was a reason why most of the stories about monsters always target legs before hands. The Hands are something that is used for many things a leg couldn't do.

The Flexibility and the Control the monsters have on their hands are incredible, The Fingers were also very dangerous. It was no different than facing the monster, Why would someone attack the legs of the monster? It was because they didn't want to face the monster head-on, Attacking the hands are destroying the word not attacking head-on.

But this isn't taken a fact since some of the monsters are irregular or abnormal. It was better to observe before the attack. Analyze everything about the Monster's behavior and proceed to make a plan for these specific behaviors. This was how hunter works before they start their hunt, Analyze the Behavior before the hunt to increase the chances of killing the monster.

Seeing the Hand heading towards Leo, Alex wanted to help but seeing his confident look. She stops herself and focuses on her current job. She was currently circling the last leg but there was one problem. It was the tail of the monster, It was doing weird things and the ability of the tail was currently unknown. It was advertising the leg in front of her but Alex wasn't that impatient.

She was circling the legs while Leo was taking the attention of the Huge Hands. It wasn't easy to dodge the giant hands since they could take more area than usual. Leo had his serious and cold eyes, Observing how the Huge Monster attacked him. Staring right at the monster while dodging its hands, Leo finally arrives at a good conclusion.

'It isn't intelligent and it is only following its instincts.' Leo was expecting more from the Human Hybrid Dog name. But it seems that they are just a beast who doesn't think, They have the wolf pact thinking while the Alpha of the pact is currently fighting him and Alex. Killing the Alpha might have a huge effect on the Human Hybrid Dog.

Leo then stares at Alex who was circling the last leg of the Huge Monster, Feeling the Stare of Leo. Alex turns her head and saw Leo giving her a signal. It was weird for her to take a signal but she didn't have time to check on her pride. Leo was giving a message to Alex about the current plan of the fight. Understanding the message, Alex nodded and continued doing what she was currently doing.

The Huge Monster's eyes were focused on Leo but that doesn't mean it had no sense in its surrounding. The two of them were having a standoff, The two were staring at each other. The Deformed eyes of the monster and the Blue Azure eyes of Leo. The Plan was a bet, It was not a good plan but it had a huge chance of success.

"Let's start." Leo began spinning his daggers. He had a smirked on his face and the Huge Monster began attacking using its huge hands. Thankfully it was slow since a huge and fast monster was hell for many obvious reasons. Leo then charges towards the monster, He was leaning his body and began clenching his daggers.

The Huge Hands was in front of Leo, Seeing the huge hands heading towards him. Leo dodges by a hair and continued on his charge. His serious eyes were looking around, Checking if something was hidden. After making sure that there wasn't anything weird in its body. Leo was sure that this attack would continue.

Seeing Leo charging towards the Huge Monster, Alex also began charging. This was a huge bet for the two, Alex had the weapon to slice the Monster's leg easily. The only thing she needed was the strength to do so, The two of them were charging towards the monster at the same time. Not showing fear and was focused on achieving victory.

Alex, who was arriving near the Leg was about to attack. The tail that was acting weird finally revealed its true form, It was controllably by the monster. This tail was a limb, A limb pretending to be a tail. Something that was more dangerous than the Huge Hands but it didn't expect one thing.

Alex smiles and Leo arrives at the face of the monster, Swinging his daggers at the monster's eyes. Blood began to flow from the monster's face but Leo didn't stop at that. He began stabbing the Monster's face over and over again, It was obvious that as Leo continues. His momentum slowly lessens.

The Tail that was about to attack Alex stopped itself. The Pain that was in its face made the Monster stop the tail from attacking. It was known that the face or head was more important than the legs. The Tail changes its trajectory and began heading towards the head of the Huge Monster in order to stop Leo's attack.

Alex then appeared near the Leg and it was now her turn, She swings her Katana. It connected through the skin and easily pierce through. It was not enough but Alex didn't try stopping there, She continues on doing the same thing over and over again like Leo. She was like chopping a tree down with her Katana, It took a while but the bones and legs finally broke themselves.

"They really are monsters." Grover muttered quietly while staring at the battle in front of them. The Prisoners were in shock seeing the battle, The two of them didn't quickly kill the Huge Monster but instead defang it. Slowly destroying its mobility while slowing making its only weapon ineffective.

"They are good at their teamwork." Keira spoke, She was staring at the two monsters with her glasses. Leo and Alex were really good at working together, It was like hunters trying to work together. Their movements and attacks were more or less the same, Another serious voice was heard.

"The fight will finish itself, The Huge Monster would probably die." Douglas said while holding his Huge Axe. His Muscular and Blond Hair, It was the only thing that made him unique to the other prisoners. It was also easy to know who Douglas was with his current look, He was standing upright like a General of some army.

"But do you think this will stop there." The Three that was talking together heard a cute voice, They turn their heads and saw the Loli standing with them. She was carrying a hammer, A huge hammer. The Huge Hammer was bigger than her body, this made the prisoners shock when they saw her carrying that Huge Hammer easily. It was weird how this Girl works but since she manages to enter the Facility, She might be a monster on her own.

Behind them was an Army of 20. Currently, Holding their spears and shields. They were lined up in 2 lines, each line has 10 people each. They didn't have time and the human resources to make the Phalanx Formation stronger so they had to do with what they got. Some of the people support while the 5 other people were in front of the army.

The Huge Monster was injured by the attack Leo and Alex made, The both of them retreated and their weapons were full of blood. The Monster already lost its legs and was currently trying to balance itself via Huge Hands. Leo, who was next to Alex spoke to her with a calm voice.

"How do you get that strong?" Leo asked, He was curious about how Alex became this strong. It was obvious how he was strong via Leveling System. Alex must be a genius or she must be hiding something important. Either way, Leo was curious about what Alex's answer was.

"I could say the same about you." Alex answered Leo with her calm and soft voice. The Guy in front of her had the shame to asked something towards her. She could even ask him the same thing, How the hell is the guy right next to her has the same strength. She worked hard for her strength and the next day, a guy appeared right next to her and had the same strength as her.

The Huge Monster's tail began splitting, It resembled a lot of tentacles. The Huge Monster began using it as something to replace the Missing Legs. It was weird but all the Huge Monster's cards were finally in front of the two of them. The Huge Monster had a deformed and bloodied face, It then roared but it was more of a scream.

"Hope you can take care of the younglings." Leo said towards the prisoners behind him, A stampede could be heard in the Giant Iron Gates. It was obvious that the younglings were heading out of the Gate, It was now time for the 20 men army behind him to fight the younglings.

The 20 men Army behind Leo began pointing their spears and preparing their shields, The Second war was about to begin.
